Florence And The Machine and Tinie Tempah for BBC Radio One’s Hackney Weekend

The ‘Ceremonials’ band and the ‘Disc-Overy’ rapper will join the likes of Leona Lewis and Plan B for the free bash, which will take place next year from June 23 – 24 at London Hackney Marshes in the run-up to the Olympics.

Tickets for the event, which will have more than double the capacity of Big Weekends, will be obtained through a lottery, with announcements set to be made in the following weeks. For more information visit BBC.co.uk/radio1/events/hackneyweekend2012.
